Over the years, I have watched author, speaker, advisor and host Andrew Keen’s position on the social web, he continues to challenge the status quo of the crowd, bringing balance. Andrew serves a very important role in the industry by curbing the exuberance of social by thinking about the short term and long term ramifications to business, society, and personal lives, in fact, his next book Digital Vertigo is out, discussing the topic of how today’s online social revolution is dividing, diminishing, and disorienting us.

Topics we covered in this short 15 min clip:

  • What’s the next phase of the internet and social web? What are the up and downsides?
  • The battle between Google vs Facebook, who’s got the upper hand, and why?
  • Why is it like 1:40am on the dance floor and software players are selling vs IPO?
